How to Save Money at Valley Animal Rehabilitation

Schedule Regular Vet Visits

One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.

Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions

Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.

Pet Insurance

Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Getting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask

Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:

Tell me about your experience with [pet type].

Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.

How do you handle emergencies?

You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.

How do you communicate with pet owners?

Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.

Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?

Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.

Do you have any questions for me about my pet?

This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.

Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?

Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

This is a place that treats your pets with care and attention. I especially appreciate their welcoming environment for large breeds. My dog mainly sees Kelly for PT, and she is astounding with him. He gets super excited in the car when he can tell we're on our way here. I brought my dog here to ease his pain from arthritis. My only regret is not doing it sooner.

This is absolutely the BEST facility for canine rehabilitation in NJ. Kiera, Isabel and all the girls at the front desk always made us feel welcomed and did I mention how efficient these girls are? Submitting my claims right after each visit. All the staff is AMAZING! I brought my 11yr old dog Coco here for physical therapy due to bilatetal luxating patella which was getting worse. We saw Dr. Henderson for an evaluation and he was very thorough, professional, empathetic, really took his time to answer any questions I had and made a detailed plan for my dog Coco for the next 4 weeks. Tim was our rehabilitation therapist, who we saw twice a week for 4 weeks and he is AMAZING! Tim is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, patient, skilled, and you can tell he absolutely loves his job. I love that they encourage you to be a part of your dog's rehabilitation and I was able to be there during every therapy session. My dog absolutely loved going there. We also saw Kelly a few times for physical therapy and she was just as great. My dog has improved significantly and now we're on a maintenance program for which we'll look forward to seeing Tim once a month.

If I could give ten stars I would!! My dog Remi had TPLO surgery eight weeks ago and has seen Dr. Henderson and his team twice a week ever since. From the moment I called and had an evaluation with Dr. Henderson, he was professional, detailed, empathetic, and took tons of time discussing our rehab program. Due to covid we couldn’t enter the building, and the therapists come out to get Remi. Each and every time we arrive, we are greeted with a huge smile, a genuine concern for updates from home, and the team answers any questions we have in great detail. Regan and Tim never fail to send photos and videos every step of the way. Every member of the team has been so helpful and you can see they have a genuine love for what they do. I cannot thank them enough for taking such good care of our dog. Today was our last day of rehab, and Remi is doing amazing. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for rehab for their pet!
